Friends of mine observed that in July 1998, in hot dry weather. They were camped near the west side road, up near the 1996 bunringman site, and the wet spot at the terminus of the Quinn River advanced a couple miles westward overnight, almost flooding their campsite. They guessed it might have been due to afternoon snowmelt upriver.

I just walk to the open playa, with my back to the man, and look at how far it goes!

On a side note!
If you search Black Rock City in google earth. Then follow the path from Highway 34 you can see the rings from years past.

Why don't ya stick your head in that hole and find out? ~pieholePlan for the worst, expect the best. Make the most out of it under any conditions. If you cannot do that you will never enjoy yourself. ~CrispyDave

My son got his playa name..."MudBoy"...when he attempted to ride his bike through a wet spot, at Spring cleanup. A DPW truck had to haul him out of the mud. He thought he was in trouble, but it made our weekend.
